Nearly Perfect 1900-S Quarter, MS67

1900-S 25C MS67 NGC. Type One Obverse / Type Two Reverse. Like the 1898-S and 1899-S, the 1900-S was placed into circulation in the Philippines as well as in the western United States. Since few coins were preserved in either locale, it is little wonder that the present Superb Gem represents a fleeting opportunity for students of this turn-of-the-century quarter series. The surfaces are bathed in satiny luster, and are brilliant and completely untoned. There is not a single flatly struck device, nor are there any abrasions that would seem to preclude an even higher grade. A thin die crack is seen at the lower left of the truncation extending to star 1. Another extremely delicate crack connects stars 4, 5, and 6. A pristine, Condition Census specimen. Total population by both services: 6 in 67, none finer (3/09).
